Visual Arts Clinic: Art/ Direct Action

Convener: Jorge Hermández Esguep

This work group’s goals are: to develop, reflect on, analyze, design, and share individual and collective artistic works as strategies within the framework of the visual arts. São Paulo will serve as the foundation for these works. To reach this objective, the work group will produce a series of process-based, three-dimensional visual works, which will be (dis)placed throughout the urban space, taking into consideration the social, political, and cultural context of São Paulo.
